Iraqi man rapes 10-year-old boy in Austria, says it was a sexual emergency'

An Iraqi man arrested in Austraia for raping a 10-year-old boy in a swimming pool said that he did it because it was a ‘sexual emergency’ as he had not had sex in four months. His wife and children are in Iraq, as reported by The Daily Mail.

The accused, identified only as 20-year-old Amir A, is kept under tight security in Vienna's Josefstadt jail in order to protect him from other prisoners.

A source told the local media that he was hated for what he was alleged to have done and he had now become a target among the other prisoners.

Amir raped the boy in cubicle of Theresienbad pool.

The Iraqi accused is a migrant and had entered Austria through the Balkans on September 5, official records stated. He said that he could not help himself as he had an 'excess of sexual energy'.

The 10-year-old boy’s mother said to Amir’s explanation for the rape, “It's like me saying I'm going to go to a bank tomorrow and rob it because I don't have enough money for my five children.'
